FIREBOX FRAMING Firebox framing can be built before or after the appliance is set in place. Refer to Figure 2 for fireplace and framing dimensions. The framing headers may rest on the top of the firebox standoffs. Do not bring headers below top of standoffs. NOTE: When planning your framing and instal-lation, keep in mind that your gas line can come in on the right or left side of the firebox (as you are facing it) and your electricity will come in on the right side.The firebox may be installed directly on a combustible floor or raised on a platform of an appropriate height. When the firebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other combustible material, other than wood flooring, the firebox shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the enclosure.

FIREPLACE LOCATIONPlan for the installation of your appliance. This includes determining where the unit is to be installed, the vent configuration to be used, framing and finishing details, and whether any optional accessories (i.e. blower, wall switch, or remote control) are desired. Consult your local building code agency to ensure compliance with local codes, including permits and inspections.The following factors should be taken into consideration:

• Clearance to side-wall, ceiling, woodwork, and windows. Minimum clearances to combustibles must be main-tained.

• This fireplace may be installed along a wall, across a corner, or use an exterior chase. See Figure 3 for sug-gested locations.

• Location should be out of high traffic areas and away from furniture and draperies due to heat from appliance.

• Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.• Do not install in the vicinity where gasoline or other

flammable liquids may be stored.• Vent pipe routing. See Venting section found in this

manual for allowable venting configurations.• These units can be installed in a bedroom. Refer to

WDV Series Gas FireplaceVENT INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION PLANNING There are two basic types of direct-vent installation:

• Horizontal Termination• Vertical Termination

It is important to select the proper length of vent pipe for the type of termination you choose. It is also important to note the wall thickness.

FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONSelect the amount of vertical rise desired. All horizontal run of venting must have 1⁄4" rise for every 12" of run towards the termination below 71⁄2 feet of vertical rise from the floor of the fireplace. With 71⁄2 feet or more vertical rise from the floor of the fireplace, the horizontal run may run level. NEVER run vent piping down. You may use up to three 90° elbows in this vent configura-tion. Refer to Vertical/Horizontal Termination Configurations on Page 15.Horizontal venting which incorporates the twist lock pipe must be installed on a level plane without an inclining or declining slope.

FOR VERTICAL TERMINATIONMeasure the distance from the fireplace floor to the ceil-ing. Add the ceiling thickness, the vertical rise in an attic or second story, and allow for sufficient vent height above the roof line. NOTE: You may use two 45° elbows in place of a 90° elbow. You must follow rise to run ratios when using 45° elbows. The appliance is approved for use with three 90° elbows maximum or a combination of 90° and 45° elbows up to a maximum of 270°.

When installing in a chase, you should insulate the chase as you would the outside walls of your home. This is especially important in cold climates. Insulation should be considered a combustible material. Maintain proper clearances to all combustible materials.

Treatment of firestops and construction of the chase may vary from building type to building type. These instructions are not substitutes for the requirements of local building codes. You must follow all local building codes.

Always maintain minimum clearances around vent systems. The minimum clearances to combustibles for horizontal and vertical vent pipe are 1" at the top, sides and bottom of the vent system. Do not pack the open air spaces with insulation or other materials. This could cause high temperatures and may present a fire hazard.

For two-story applications, firestops are required at each floor level. If an offset is needed in the attic, additional pipe and elbows will be required.You may use a chase with a vent termination with exposed pipe on the exterior of the house.Refer to Installing A Vent System in an Outside Chase below. If pipe is enclosed in chase, it is not exposed. It is very important that the venting system maintain its bal-ance between the combustion air intake and the flue gas exhaust. Certain limitations apply to vent configurations and must be strictly followed.

INSTALLING A VENT SYSTEM IN AN OUTSIDE CHASEA chase is a vertical boxlike structure built to enclose venting that runs along the outside of a building. A chase is required for such venting.

HOW TO USE THE VENT GRAPHThe Vent Graph should be read in conjunction with the following vent installation instructions to determine the relationship between the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the vent system.1. Determine the height of the center of the horizontal vent

pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this dimension on the Sidewall Vent Graph below, locate the point intersecting with the slanted graph line.

2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to the bottom of the graph.

3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the fire-place in accordance with same.

Example: If the vertical dimension from the floor of the fireplace is 11' (3.4 m) the horizontal run to the face of the outer wall must not exceed 16' (4.9 m).

VERTICAL SIDEWALL INSTALLATIONNOTE: Sealant is not required to assemble fireplace venting. Do not use silicone sealant at the inner flue exhaust connections.Step 1Locate vent opening on the wall. It may be necessary to first position the fireplace and measure to obtain hole lo-cation. Depending on whether the wall is combustible or noncombustible, cut opening to size. Figure 11 (For com-bustible walls first frame in opening.)Combustible Walls: Cut a 101⁄2”H x 101⁄2”W (267 x 267 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as shown.

Use appropriate length of pipe sections - telescopic or fixed - and install. Sealing vent pipe and firestop gaps with high tem-perature sealant will restrict cold air being drawn in around fireplace.Step 7Guide the vent terminations 5” and 8” collard into their respective vent pipes. Double check that the vent pipes overlap the collars by a minimum 11⁄4” (32 mm). Secure the termination to the wall with screws provided and caulk around the wall plate to weatherproof. As an alternative to screwing the termination directly to the wall, you may also use expanding plugs or an approved exterior construction adhesive. Support horizontal pipes every 36” (914 mm) with metal pipe straps.

WDV Series Gas FireplaceVENTING INSTALLATION

VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL TERMINATION CONFIGURATIONSSince it is very important that the venting system maintain its balance between the combustion air intake and the flue gas exhaust, certain limitations as to vent configurations apply and must be strictly adhered to.The Vent Graph, showing the relationship between vertical and horizontal side wall venting, will help to determine the various dimensions allowable. Figure 10 NOTE: Horizontal and vertical sections of this vent system require a minimum of 1" clearance to combustibles at the top, sides and bottom. When vent exits through foundations less than 20" below outcrop, the termination must be flush up with outcropped wall above.It is best to locate the fireplace in such a way that minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length.The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent pipe from the flue collar of the fireplace (or the top of the Transition Elbow) to the face of the finished outside wall.

• The maximum number of 90° elbows per side wall installation is three (3). Figure 14

• A minimum of 12" is required before a 90° elbow. If a 90° elbow is fitted directly after 12" vertical section mounted to the top of the fireplace, the maximum horizontal vent run before the termination or a vertical rise is 36” (914 mm). Figure 15

In Figure 16 dimension A plus B must not be greater than 141⁄2' (4.4 m). • For each 45° elbow installed in the horizontal run, the

length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by 18" (45 cm). This does not apply if the 45° elbows are installed on the vertical part of the vent system.

• The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system is 270°. Figure 17

• If a 90° elbow is used in the horizontal vent run (level height maintained) the horizontal vent length is reduced by 36". Figures 16 and 17. This does not apply if the 90° elbows are used to increase or redirect a vertical rise.

Example: According to the vent graph (Page 13) the max-imum horizontal vent length in a system with a 10' vertical rise is 171⁄2’ (5.3 m) and if a 90° elbow is required in the horizontal vent it must be reduced to 141⁄2' (4.4 m).

BELOW GRADE INSTALLATIONSWhen it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal clearances of 12" above grade level, a snorkel kit is rec-ommended. It allows installation depth down to 7" (178 mm) below grade level. The 7" (178 mm) is measured from the center of the horizontal vent pipe as it penetrates through the wall.Ensure that sidewall venting clearances are observed. If venting system is installed below ground, we recom-mend a window well with adequate and proper drainage to be installed around the termination area.If installing a snorkel, a minimum 12" vertical rise is neces-sary. The maximum horizontal run with the 12” vertical pipe is 36". This measurement is taken from the collar of the fireplace (or transition elbow) to the face of the exterior wall. See the Sidewall Venting Graph for extended horizontal run if the vertical exceeds 12".1. Establish vent hole through the wall. 2. Remove soil to a depth of approximately 16" below base

of snorkel. Install drain pipe. Install window well (not supplied). Refill hole with 12" of coarse gravel leaving a clearance of approximately 4" below snorkel. Figure 18

3. Install vent system.4. Ensure a watertight seal is made around the vent pipe

coming through the wall.5. Apply high temperature sealant caulking (supplied)

WDV Series Gas Fireplace VENTING INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION FOR VERTICAL TERMINATION

1. Determine the route your vertical venting will take. If ceiling joist, roof rafters or other framing will obstruct the venting system, consider an offset. Refer to Figure 22 to avoid cutting load bearing members.

For optimal flame appearance, a restrictor disk is necessary on straight vertical runs of 10' of more.• Runs may not incorporate elbows. • The disk is part number 56D3027 and is included in

installation manual packet.• Drop the disk into a 5" inner collar before installing the

first section of flue or install at the last section before installing the termination.

• An additional disk may be installed on runs of 35' or more. Rotate disks perpendicular to each other.

NOTE: Pay special attention to these installation instructions for required clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, etc. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Also note maximum vertical rise of the venting system and any maximum horizontal offset limitations. Offsets must fall within the parameters shown in Figures 21 and 22.2. Set fireplace in desired location. Drop a line plumb down

from the ceiling to the position of the flue exit. Mark the center point where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small locating hole a this point.

Drop a plumb line from the inside of the roof to the ceiling locating hole in the ceiling. Mark the center point where the vent will penetrate the roof. Drill a small locating hole at this point.

FLAT CEILING INSTALLATION1. Cut a 101⁄2" (241 mm) square hole in the ceiling using

the locating hole as a center point The opening should be framed to 101⁄2" x 101⁄2" (241 x 241 mm) inside dimen-sions as shown in Figure 24 using framing lumber the same size as the ceiling joist. If the area above the ceiling is an insulated ceiling or a room, nail firestop from the top side. This prevents loose insulation from falling into the required clearance space. Figure 23. Otherwise, install firestop below the framed hole. Figure 24

2. Assemble the desired lengths of pipe and elbows nec-essary to reach from the burner system flue up through the firestop. Be sure pipe and elbow connections are fully twist-locked.

20306744 19

WDV Series Gas FireplaceVENTING INSTALLATION 3. Cut a hole in the roof using the locating hole as a center

point. (Cover any exposed open vent pipes before cutting hole in roof). The 101⁄2"x101⁄2" (241 x 241 mm) hole must be measured on the horizontal. Actual length may be larger depending on the pitch of the roof. There must be a 1" minimum clearance from the vent pipe to combustible materials. (Insulation should be considered a combustible material).

4. Connect a section of pipe and extend up through the hole.

NOTE: If an offset is needed to avoid obstructions, you must support the vent pipe every three (3) feet. Use wall straps for this purpose. Figure 22. Whenever possible, use 45° elbows instead of 90° elbows. The 45° elbow offers less restriction to the flow of the flue gases and intake air.5. Place the flashing over the pipe section(s) extending

through the roof. Secure the base of the flashing to the roof and framing with roofing nails. Be sure roofing material overlaps the top edge of the flashing. There must be a 1" clearance from the vent pipe to combustible materials.

6. Continue to add pipe sections until the height of the vent cap meets the minimum building code requirements.

NOTE: You must increase vent height for steep roof pitches. Nearby trees, adjoining roof lines, steep pitched roofs, and other similar factors may cause poor draft or down-drafting in high winds. Increasing the vent height may solve this problem.NOTE: If the vent pipe passes through any occupied areas above the first floor, including storage spaces and closets, you must enclose pipe. You may frame and sheetrock the enclosure with standard construction material. Make sure to meet the minimum allowable clearances to combustibles. Do not fill any of the required clearance spaces with insulation.

FLEX VENT INSTALLATION1. Flexible UL1777 listed venting may be used in any

venting application where rigid direct vent components can be used. All restrictions, clearances and allowances that pertain to the rigid piping apply to the flexible venting. Flex kits may not be modified. Flex kits may be added to the end of a vent run made of rigid vent sections using pipe manufacturer's approved flex to pipe adapters. This may occur only if doing so does not violate any of the venting length, height, routing, horizontal to vertical ratio requirements or clearance considerations detailed in this manual.

2. The flex adapter starter kit (DVFF8A/8) is used to attach flex venting to the appliance starting collar. It includes 5" inner and 8" outer adapter rings. Figure 26

• The inner and outer adapter rings are required to start all flex runs.

• Never install damaged or torn flexible venting.• Over tightening clamps may rip, tear, or otherwise

damage flexible venting.• The adapter kit does not include individual pipe

sections which may be purchased separately. (UL1777 listed type venting only.)

3. Start the flexible vent as follows:A. Installing the inner flex adapter and pipe. Figure 26

1. Insert the long side of the 5" inner ring into exhaust pipe, gently tap to seat into place, and secure with screws.

2. Slide the small gear clamp over the inner flexible vent pipe, and push out of the way.

3. Pull and extend the inner flexible vent.4. Slide the inner vent onto the adapter collar, for a

minimum 13⁄4" overlap.5. Locate the clamp at approximately 3/4" from the

flex end and tighten.6. Secure the clamped inner section with three

self-tapping screws, drilled equidistant, just above the clamp perimeter.

B. Installing the outer flex pipe. Figure 261. Firmly insert the 8" outer adapter ring into the

WDV Series Gas Fireplace FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK GAS TYPEUse proper gas type for the fireplace you are installing. If you have conflicting gas type, do not install fireplace. See dealer where you purchased the fireplace for proper fireplace for your gas type or conversion kit.

INSTALLING GAS PIPING TO FIREPLACE LOCATION

INSTALLATION ITEMS NEEDEDBefore installing fireplace and burner system, make sure you have the items listed below.

• External regulator (supplied by installer) • Piping (check local codes) • Equipment shutoff valve*• Sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas) • Test gauge connection* • Sediment trap (recommended) • Tee joint • Pipe wrench• Approved flexible gas line with gas connector (if

allowed by local codes — not provided)* A CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve with

1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase the CSA design-certified equip-ment shutoff valve from your dealer.

For propane/LP connections only, the installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 13 inches of water. If you do not reduce incoming gas pressure, burner system regulator damage could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Figure 31. Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.

When using copper of flex connectors use only fittings approved for gas connections. The gas control inlet is 3/8" NPT.The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8" test point up stream of the control.Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. Refer to gas specifications for pressure details and ratings.The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this and any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.

WA

RN

ING A qualified installer or service person must

connect appliance to gas supply. Follow all local codes.

Use only new black iron or steel pipe. Internally tinned copper or copper tubing can be used per National Fuel Code, Section 2.6.3, providing gas meets hydrogen sulfide limits, and where permitted by local codes. Gas piping system must be sized to provide minimum inlet pressure (listed on data plate) at the maximum flow rate (BTU/hr). Undue pressure loss will occur if the pipe is too small.

NOTE: The gas line connection may be made using 1/2" rigid tubing or an approved flex connector. Since some municipalities have additional local codes it is always best to consult your local authorities and the current edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI.Z223.1, NFPA54. In Canada CSA-B149 (1 or 2) Installation Code. A listed manual shutoff valve must be installed upstream of the appliance. Union tee and plugged 1/8" NPT pressure tapping point should be installed upstream of the appliance. Figure 32IMPORTANT: Install main gas valve (equipment shutoff valve) in an accessible location. The main gas valve is for turning on or shutting off the gas to the fireplace. Check your building codes for any special requirements for locating equipment shutoff valve to fireplaces.Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess seal-ant in pipe could result in clogged burner system valves.

We recommend that you install a sediment trap/drip leg in supply line as shown in Figure 32. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and burner system. Locate sediment trap/drip leg where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap collects moisture and contaminants and keeps them from going into the burner system gas con-trols. If sediment trap/drip leg is not installed or is installed wrong, burner system may not run properly. 1. Check gas type. The gas supply must be the same as

stated on the appliance’s rating decal. If the gas supply is different from the fireplace, STOP! Do not install the appliance. Contact your dealer immediately.

2. To ease installation, a 24" (610 mm) flex line with manual shut-off valve has been provided with this appliance. Install and attach 1/2" gas line onto shut-off valve.

3. After completing gas line connection, purge air from gas line and test all gas joints from the gas meter to the fireplace for leaks. Use a solution of 50/50 water and soap solution or a gas sniffer.

4. To check gas pressures at valve, turn captured screw counter clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then place tubing to pressure gauge over test point. Turn unit to high. Fig-ure 33. After taking pressure reading, be sure and turn captured screw clockwise firmly to reseal. Do not over torque. Check test points for gas leaks.
